TEAM ABYSS,
A TEAM OF PROFESSIONAL FREEDIVERS
Freediving is an extreme individual sport, but its strength lies in teamwork.
From the preparation coach to the safety freediver who supervises each dive, the success of a deep free dive depends on a close-knit team with common goals.
That’s why we created the first professional freediving team. Composed of five athletes, already holding several world records. Supported by a staff of experts, all united by strong values.
